Are you lacking Energy or feeling Lethargic? These symptoms and others can be experienced when you are lacking Good Healthy Salt in your Diet (not to be confused with common table salt that is stripped of vital nutrients and bleached). No wonder there is so much misinformation about SALT. I remember standing at a Bakery counter about 20 years ago when I bought a quiche as did someone next to me. We asked for a little salt to be sprinkled on them and the reply was, they can't do that, they don't have any salt shaker in the place and they don't use salt.…

Metformin has become a really trendy drug in the anti-aging community. A lot of my anti-aging colleagues prescribe it and take it themselves. They call it a “wonder drug.”

In fact, they’re absolutely shocked when they find out I don’t take it.

These are people I respect and usually see eye-to-eye with. But they’re missing something important when it comes to metformin. (You might know it as Glucophage.)

For a drug that’s considered the biggest new thing in anti-aging medicine, it’s actually causing some of the worst conditions associated with aging.…

We all believe the old adage “Laughter is the best medicine”. But we have mistakenly attributed this benefit to psychology alone. Now new research has revealed that laughter affects your physiology more directly than attitude or positive thinking.

We can show that laughter has an immediate and direct affect on:

• Heart rate

• Skin temperature

• Blood pressure

• Breathing rate

• Muscle activity

• Brain activity1

But most importantly (and the point of this letter to you), laughter can improve the way your body handles disease by activating your immune system.…

This Is What Your Food Cravings Really Mean

By Carly Fraser - Independent Natural Health Researcher

What do your food cravings really mean? Usually, when you crave something, that is your brain signaling that it is lacking a certain nutrient, and so it will automatically gravitate to the things that are easy, un-healthy and leave us wanting more (since the foods we often gravitate to will momentarily satisfy us, however, our brain will keep on firing, and telling us to eat more – since we didn’t give it the proper nutrients – which leads us into the problem of over-eating).…

It seems that not a week goes by without scientists identifying some gene or other that is believed to play a critical role in our susceptibility to a specific illness or condition. Recently, for instance, researchers in Italy announced that they had found a gene that is involved in the normal production of serotonin – a brain chemical that helps maintain a cheery disposition. It is believed that individuals afflicted with some fault in this gene will make them prone to undesirable mood states such as anxiety.…

Stop dealing with that leaky bladder (Try THIS vitamin!) 

If you’re dealing with those embarrassing “leaks” after you laugh or sneeze, or just plain out of the blue… you’re NOT alone. 

More than 43 percent of people over the age of 65 have incontinence.  

Yet lots of my patients STILL have a tough time talking to me about their bladder problems.  

But this isn’t just happening at my office…  

A report done in 2018 by the National Poll on Healthy Aging found that two-thirds of patients hadn’t spoken to their doctor about incontinence because it’s “embarrassing.”  

But you don’t have to put up with it any longer.  …

I’m not sure why more psychiatrists don’t first test for nutritional deficiencies before dispensing Zoloft or Prozac, and especially antipsychotics like Seroquel and Zyprexa. The good ones will send you to get lab work done before upping your meds or adjusting anything. Sometimes we do need antidepressants. But other times we need spinach — think of Popeye.

In addition to seeing a psychiatrist, I now work with an integrative health physician who tests my nutrition levels every year.…

"You are what you eat.” This common phrase couldn’t be more true, but not in the way you might think. More accurately, the phrase should be “You are what your microbiome eats.” The trillions of bacteria and yeast in your gastrointestinal tract are fueled by the food you eat on a daily basis and it can affect aspects of your health beyond digestion including your immune system, brain, and hormones.

In my telehealth functional medicine clinic, I have worked with thousands of patients on their gut health journey.…
